018 - Phone, still stage four... or is he?

[worstvikingever]

[So when he starts the call he sounds kind of astonished.]

Guys, I think I really am a communist.

No really. After hearing what it means, it... sounds a lot like the way things work back home. I mean, we kind of sort of have a system where you do something for someone and they repay you in kind, but we really don't have any currency or anything, and everyone just does stuff to help each other out.

It... worked really well. I don't see what the big deal is. Why is it supposedly such a evil thing or whatever? I mean if it works, it works, right?

...well I did kill a giant dragon.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

Alriiight, there you go! That's way better than I expected.

[worstvikingever]

I don't really need to... you know... impress girls, though.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

...Oh? Are you just that studly that the story's redundant? I may have to check you out myself if that's the case.

[worstvikingever]

No no I mean... well I have a girlfriend back home. Or. Well. I did. She was here for a little while, too.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

Ohohoho. Killed a giant dragon and got the girl. I think that's a pretty textbook example of a human 'hero'.

[worstvikingever]

Sure, I guess.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

Oh well. I guess we're not meant to be. After all, it's a hero's job to slay demons, right? Think of the scandal!

[worstvikingever]

Uh. Right.

[so confused...]

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

So, what's your name, big hero?

[worstvikingever]

Hiccup. I know, I know, it's not really a great name, but it's not the worst, believe me.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

... ... ...

My mental image of you went from someone I'd consider fighting to someone whose cheeks I want to pinch. Hiccup.

[worstvikingever]

Well it's probably more accurate that way anyway. I'm really not much of a fighter. At all. Ever.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

And you killed a dragon.

A big one.

[worstvikingever]

Yeah. I was riding another dragon at the time, but yeah.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

Not as cool as punching it in the face to death, but that's still not bad.

[worstvikingever]

Gee thanks. I feel so much better.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

And I know you're just shaking in anticipation, so I should introduce myself: you can call me Beauty Queen Etna♥

[worstvikingever]

...Right. Can I just call you Etna?

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

Augh, fiiine. If you really HAVE to.

[worstvikingever]

Yeah. I'd really prefer it. Sorry.

[sexy-beams.livejournal.com]

No one around here has any sense of respect.

[worstvikingever]

Uh. Sorry.
